The streets sparkle like silver
now that the rain has changed into snow
I could see a dazzling future the color of a dream
that Christmas Day
I looked at you and smiled
on that holy night,
yet your tears overflowed
"I'll love you forever..." So why?
Now the dancing snow is starting to disappear
I look up at the distant sky
Someone new is waiting for me,
but I still harbor those feelings that I can't shake
We used to laugh together back then;
we weren't afraid of anything
But I hurt your gentle spirit
that Christmas Day
Now I'm wandering aimlessly,
searching for those hopes and dreams
The sky I gaze up at
is too big for me to grasp
even if I were able to reach it So Why?
Now the dancing snow is starting to disappear
I'll take the unwavering feelings of that time
and go forth into a new tomorrow,
because we can't go back to that story
As I keep on walking, I can't help but wonder
as the snowflakes melt in my outstretched hand
if maybe someday we'll meet again
and finally be able to tell each other how we really feel
little miss.
Melina Eng, Lyna or Mel for short.

yo yo! Mel saying a biiiig "HELLO!" from Shanghai yo! ;D Shangahi was not too bad. Toilets are so not up to standard though. Can't even flush the toilet paper properly. So, they actually have this basket inw hich you can throw all your used toilet paper there, wghich eventually stinks up the WHOLE DAMN TOILET.
yeah. nanjing road was horrible. I actually fell down while jay walking with my friend. =,= NOT FUNNY YO. Plus, there was nothing that we could buy. As in, it's all winter clothes and they are all over priced. I mean, the stuff in Zara were totally ex. Lile there was this top which costs S$80 in SHANGHAI, but the same top costs $29.90 in SINGAPORE. Total rip off.
Pfft. Complaints complaints complaints. rah. Will tell yall more about it soon. Can;t wait for the yu garden bazaar! ;D
a HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO ALL! ;D Yeah, pity that Val and I are in SHANGHAI, or we would be planning this oh-so-awesome class halloween party! Now, what's more depressing then that? Oh, yes, there are more depressing things. Firstly, no more HALLOWEEN PARTY for the next few years as we will be preparing for our terrifying O levels. Secondly, we'll be leaving SHANGHAI soon. Thirdly, I still feel awful about my grades.
Well, today was a rather sad day. We said our goodbyes and gave hugs. (even kisses~ heh) Coco and Val were the ones who cried the most, as for the past few days, they have been very close. VERY VERY VERY CLOSE. So, either you bond a lot with your buddy and risk a very painful farewell, or just not get close at all and treat it as school.\
I was kind of forced to choose the second option. I didn't want to cry too much, but that would mean that I didn't really made a like, close friend in the school during this twinning programme. However, one thing's for sure, I did became good friend's with Emily's buddy, TRACY! She's funny, smart, pretty and well, council material! Though agressive, yet has that cosy, warm, family kind of thing. I miss her oh-so-much. Emily actually teared while Tracy and I just made those crying sound. Just to let you know, we didn't cry. Though, Emily said that Tracy sort of lost her appetite during lunch, reason being that she was sad about something.
Such a sweet girl indeed! She actually gave me her favourite pen from Japan! It's this adorable lil Minnie surfer pen, pink in colour and a flower on top which I found very useful. Why? It stops it from rolling off the table! FINALLY, A PEN THAT DOESN'T ROLL OFF THE TABLE!;D Heh, oh and she's loud too~ We asked her to call her class out and she really did, in a very... erm. Okay, it's kind of hard to describe as I don't really have a wide range of vocabulary. Will let the people I know hear the recording I took. :D
Oh, next we went to the science and technology museum(sp?). It was so fun! My memory almost ran out though-hint, hint, 2 gig memory stick please!-. Emily, Jia Yu, Cheryl, Tricia, me and some other people formed a group of six. Though, I took too long to get a clear shot that Tricia, Cheryl and another person left. So, Jia Yu, Emily and I braved the rainforest and the other thing. We had tonnes of fun in the mesuem, althoguh we wished that more time was given for us to explore the whole place. D:
Hmm, dinner was saddening too. Well, the food was great but our tour guide, xu lao shi was leaving. Yet another depressing thing to add to the list of depressing things that happened today. We took a photo with her! :D Just to let you know, my zi pai-ing skills are A-W-E-S-O-M-E! Sad songs were being played the whole time. Like, OMGOSH, stop making this any sad-er.
Hmm, then Cheryl taught me how to play the card game 'goldfish'. A very fun game indeed~ Now, Ashley, Cheryl and I are currently using the computer now. Except, I'm leaving as soon as I check a few more stuff. XD
YES SHAUN, I HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN YOUR BIRTHDAY. D: Bleah, going broke soon. Who wants to donate money Melina's Shopping Fund?

Hmm. 53 out of the 120 stupidest things. omgosh, retarded.
Actually, this post was going to be another meme, but I figured that I'd rather do a normalpost instead as my phone keeps auto changing the theme.
Well, currently using the laptop in my Brother's room as my parents and sister decided to watch that horror movie, Rule #1. Being a rather timid girl, I am afraid of watching horror movies. So, after making sure that my dad paused the movie, I rushed all the way up here. Now, I'm too afraid to leave the room. :(
Hmm, today was another alright day. The alumni came over and shared their life in CHIJ and what they did after they left. We also discussed about the oh-so-awesome project that we are going to do. Shhh, IT'S A S-E-C-R-E-T. Yvonne was the funniest of them all. Now, take a calculator and press the numbers 1, 7, 7, 1, 5, 5 and the letter 'U'. Heh, it spells 'miss u'. That was how they used to communicate with each other while using pagers. All those codes and whatnots.
Now,let's see if you can crack this one: 07734 ;D tag the answer on the board!
After that, I went to Takashimaya to meet Cleris and Val Wong. Since the train takes so long to travel from Clementi to Orchard, I had enough time to get lunch and walk into some shops like pull and bear, Zara, etc. I saw this really nice pair of jeans at Zara. Fifty over dollars though. :'( I'm in desperate need of a pair of jeans. Thankfully, Cleris was being such a DEAR and asked if I could fit into her pair of jeans which was loose for her.
Then we headed off to Art Friend to buy Val's Christmas present. Heh. It' some stamp thing. Like, you drip the wax and take the stamp and place it on the wax before it dries up. Exactly like the Hogwarts thing, except instead of the Hogwarts school logo, it's the letter 'V'. We then took the escalator down to Kinokunia and browsed some books.
Then we went to Cotton on, Forever 21 and yeah. Finally, to FOX where I bought a a pair of knee high socks for the Shanghai trip. Val offered to lend me her money(So did Cleris, but not at that point of time) so that I could buy it. THANKS HONEY! ;D Been looking for a nice pair of knee high socks, and I finally found them at FOX. Quite costly though. 9 bucks~
Next was erm, I forgot. Heh. But there was this little girl who stood at the entrance. Cleris thought it was a mannequin(wrong spelling for sure) and got shocked when she moved. The clothes there were nice! Well, to sum tat partup, it is better to have a baby girl than a baby boy. That would mean, SHOPPING, SHOPPING AND MORE SHOPPING! :D
Yeah. Took the mrt to Novena and said our 'Goodbye's to Val Wong. Then Cleris and I went our separate ways after taking the escalator up.
Yes. there is only one word to describe today. Suck-ish. I screwed up totally during service. The chords were all wrong, I staggered during the doxology. I screwed up the first song and my other solos.
Directions: 1. Put your music player on shuffle. 2. Press forward for each question. 3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn't make sense. NO CHEATING! 4. Tag 10 people to play this game too.

Grades grades grades... RAH. It's not pretty, that's all I can tell you. Lets just say the teacher's red pen ink splattered all over my papers. =,="
English: 64 (B4) Combined: 61(STILL a B4. Thank God. :D)
Chinese: 49.75 (D7) Combined: Most probably a pass, though I deproved a lot.
Mathematics: 50 (C6) Combined: 56 (C5) A very disgusting pass. I dropped 14 marks. 14MARKS.
Humanities Geography: This one almost killed me. I'd never expect myself to score so low. Social Studies: 25/50 (C6) And I thought I would fail. Was so prepared to do so too. Combined: A fail, I guess.
Sciences Chemistry: 55/65 A-W-E-S-O-M-E-N-E-S-S! Biology: 39.5/65 Combined: 72 point something (A2). Happy but not THAT happy. I was aiming for an A1. Art: 67.9 or .7 (B3) Bad. Though I expected it. I SCORED HIGHEST FOR THE DRAWING AND PAINTING PAPER!
I looked up to the sky and saw clouds, not those white cotton candy-like puffy clouds, but those dark grey clouds. As f it was some warning.
I knew, that something bad was going to happen today. Today was the checking of scripts. Once again, I was right. Though to blame God would be the easy way out, but that would be ridiculous. I blame no one else but myself. I brought this upon myself. I have to suffer the consequences.
My results are pretty bad. A pattern, you see? The people who did rather well, or did a fantastic job for mid years had not so pretty grades for End of years. Looks like I did burn out. I am satisfied with my English, though I could have done better. I barely scrapped passed a B4. After combining it with mid years, I only managed a pathetic 61. An improvement from last time but still...
Humanities were the worst. Never did I expect myself to pass on the dot for Social Studies and fail Geography. I dislike Social Studies and LOVE Geography. Surprisingly, I got 15/25 for my SEQ, although I could have gotten a few more marks if I finished the second part of the last question. SBQ was alright I guess. 10/25. A pass, which is good, since I wrote some crap here and there.
Really, I never expected this. Reading my book was the only way to stop me from bursting into tears. My hands were trembling and my lips were quivering. A few more words from Chelsea and you would see a waterfall. I practically enclosed myself in this invisible box. Trying desperately to block out all the noise and stuff.
As for Chinese, I almost passed. I just need 0.25 marks to pass. I totally screwed up my compo. I almost spazzed out when I saw my marks.
*sigh* Looks like I failed. I failed to get my 5 'A's and failed to prove the graph wrong. It may not be the end of the world, but it feels like it. Gosh, I feel real awful now. I've never failed anything else but my Chinese. *sobs* Nande? Doshite? Wae yo?
Am I destined to follow in my brother's foot steps? ------------------------------------------------------ Now I have to break it to Joey that I can't go to the Kpop concert and fan meeting. Not only that, I'll be missing my class party. Ice skating will be later so its alright. Oh wells, you win some you lose some. DANG. I hate myself.
HAHAH. WHATEVER HAPPENED TODAY CAN BE FOUND AT JOEY'S BLOOOOOOG. ;D Yes, yes. If only she told me earlier that the tickets were to be redeemed today, we would both skip school and start waiting for Novena to open. ;D
Today was total madness. Joey and I were fangirling like nobody's business the moment we started talking about the WG and the tickets. Tickets to where you ask? Well, tickets to the one and only Kpop concert yo! ;D We got it off cheap at 30 bucks.
First we wanted to leave the school at 11, just before the talk and immediately after recess. So, we came up with a beg and go idea to get to Novena asap. During our so called free period, we sort of begged Mr Lim to let us leave at 11am. the convo can be found at Joey's blog. Too lazy to type it out.
"AJAA! HWAITING!" XD
Anyhoo, we bought stuff from faceshop. Dang, the shops nearby the counter are making loads of money. Most of them had the faceshop bag in their hands though. XD When we got to the counter, we almost died. Like, SERIOUSLY. Cause it was actually $60 dollars in ONE receipt, and we thought it was $60 for ONE ticket. We totally freaked out yo. We thought we had to spend another $60(Which means the total would be $120, if you can't do the math) to get another ticket. The wonderfuls who were behind us were shocked too when they heard it.
BUT, it as actually $60 for a PAIR of tickets.(Silly us) So the oh-so-kind wonderfuls helped us by persuading the lady to combine both receipts. :D THANKS OH SO MUCH!(even though you may or may not see this)
Yes, that's craziness for you. XD Pictures! No cam whore though. Joey refused. -,- Dang. PC suite is hanging on me. :/ looks like pictures will be up tomorrow. I have been told to take my happy pills from tomorrow onwards. I got to take two of them everyday! A dose of computer and another dose of ps2. :D
Now, to list out the things that I want my parents to buy from Korea. Joey and I decided to save up and go on a trip to Korea TOGETHER! HOW COOL IS THAT? XD Then, we'll be going to NUS to learn Korean :D
): School starts tomorrow. Which means, papers will be returned. The good thing is, if there aren't any papers to be checked tomorrow, then we'll be playing the oh-so-awesome card game, SPEED. It is rated THE most popular post exam game :D
Been gaming for the past few days! :D Finally, I completed God of War 2. I'm so proud of myself.(HAHAH) I only used the faq mostly during the end of the game, with all the annoying mind bogging puzzles and bosses. The sisters of fate were one of the best boss fights I've ever encountered. They tested my reaction time and focus, they tested my determination and patience. All and all, I finally did it. Heh, fine. I did read through the faq for that part.
Though the last and final sister was a little tough. I was kind of lost when the faq mentioned the pendulum. I mean, the pendulum WAS there. I was just being stupid I guess. HAHAH. Well, come to think of it, the only tough part was the puzzles and her little(NOT) hands that kept whacking me. Stunning them caused me my magic. ):
OH! Then there was Zeus. Four phases to defeat him yo. After reading through the faq, I finally killed him. Dang, ALMOST.
When I was about to deliver the final blow to Zeus that would once and for all put me into ease, Athena(why must you sacrifice yourself for Olympus?) came in and the blade of Olympus went through her. She said that Zeus had to live in order for Olympus to prevail. It was fear that drove Cronos to imprison his children in his belly, the same fear that drove Zeus into wanting to kill Kratos, his son. She went on to saying that no son should kill his father, so on and so forth.
Still, I have the titans on my side. Gaya and company. ;D
VICTORY FAVORS YOU, KRATOS.
THE END BEGINS... God of War 3, here I come~
I'm currently replaying GOW 2(bonus play, so now Kratos is currently wearing the Hydra armour) to max out my other stuff, like the spear and that oh-so-useless hammer. Both the spear and the hammer's level two. I've been using a combination of Athena's Blades and the Blades of Olympus. They so rock yo. Thanks to 'divine sacrifice', maxing out the Blade of Olympus turned out to be pretty quick. I was totally O.O when I saw the number of orbs needed to max it out. Weird number though. 24,973 orbs.
Who knew those little flying things could have so much orbs?
------------------------------------------------------- So going to beg her to let me ice skate with my beloved friends. It's the best 'happy pill' I can ever find.
Honestly speaking, I couldn't really worship the Lord today. All the excitement seems to be affecting me, yet, it doesn't. I'm officially Holiday deprived. I'm unable to go out unless it's with my church friends. My computer found the right time to break down.
I'm just glad hat I have my PS2 and my books. :D GOW 2 totally rocks. Come on, I know what yall are thinking. How can such an innocent looking girl have such a mad love for all things gory? Well, just so you know, I'm highly influenced.
...BACK TO WORSHIP...
During praise and worship, many things kept running through my mind. All those questions just kept popping up, to the point that I'd actually build an invisible barrier around me. To shut out all that may distract me from my trail of thought. I had not been reflecting much lately, with all the exam stress. QT seemed like another lost piece of the puzzle to heaven that I'm trying so hard to complete. my bible was no where to be found, so I just left home with a bible-less bag.
For once, it felt light. It's like us Christians. I mean, it s indeed not easy to be one. With the ten commandments as our guide/rule book in life. Breaking one would mean breaking all. The cross may sometimes be too heavy for us to carry, to finish this race. We would often find ways to make the load lighter. I remember during one of the sermons there was this video that really touched me.
A video of this little stick person, dragging the heavy cross that was on his shoulders. Winter passed, so did spring, summer and autumn. He was exhausted, so he decided to cut a little piece of the cross away. Soon, this became a habit. Then it came to point of time where there was this cliff. The gap between this stick person and the other side was almost the length of the cross. The other stick people had no difficulty in crossing cliff.
However, that little stick man found out that his cross although may be light, but it was short. So he just stood there and wept. Just then, a hand came down, the hand of God. He gave the stick man a new cross, so that He was able to cross the cliff and continue his journey.
Our God is an awesome God.
*sigh* I felt really disconnected with not only God, but with everyone else. PRAY. That's what I'll do.Pray. Trust in God.Don't ever doubt Him...
Hurrah. Okay, alright. This post is a day late, alright? ;D Abyhoo, after art Val and I went to taka to take a GOOD look at art friend. We had so many ideas for the part we might have and of course, her room. IT'S GOING TO BE SOOO FRENCH-IE!
HAHAH. We headed off to pull and bear first though. The clothes there are awesome :D Unfortunately, we are not rich kids. ): Well, Val is more to do than me, and her mom can sew. As in, make/ alter clothes. How lucky can she get?
We shared lunch and ate green tea ice cream all the way from HOKKAIO. It was so totally awesome! I'm not much of a fan of Green Tea, but this was an exception. ;P We then headed off to art friend, followed by Kinokunia.
I wen home real late though. Got lectured by my parents. Why, you ask? Well, It's not about how late it was. My card was ran out of money, so I couldn't contact my parents. Val, being a dear, offered to lend me her phone. Thanks dear :D
Dang. Don't want to talk about it. TODAY'S A HAPPY DAY! :D
Hmm, I went home and slept around 8 plus. Was exhausted from window shopping and lack of sleep. I only slept...TOOK A NAP for an hour that day. HAHAH. Was rushing out my art prep.
I woke up at 8 plus in the morning! :O yes, 8 to 8. 12 hours? Followed by AA meeting at 10 til about 12. Had lunch with Pei Shan at Yoshinoya :D Beef bowl was delicious and HEALTHY. :D It even had the 'healthier choice' symbol.
We walked around and squealed at the adorable things at mini toons. Looks like we really lost contact with the shopping world We practically went 'OMGOSH' at almost everything, with all the 'I want this!' or 'Look at that!'
Somehow, we found ourselves again at the Bishan MRT. We said our 'Good bye's at Braddle as she lived near by. Then I WALKED(yay) home.
Here I am, playing GOD OF WAR 2 and using my sister's laptop. I'm having some difficulty trying to get to the Sisters of Fate. Turn back time to get back all my powers. Every single ounce of it to get revenge on Zeus.
Athena told Kratos, the god of war to not believe the titans and that What Zeus did was to protect Olympus. Dang. Now I'm like stuck. The translator refuses to aid me in my quest in getting even with Zeus, so he jumped. Now, the problem is. I need him. Then there's this shimmery mirror-like water thing. I stepped through it and I was back to the point of time when he said that he wouldn't let me get to the Sisters of Fate.
The thing is, each time I was too slow, he would jump and the more time I step through this time thing, the entrance of that room gets smaller. If I try too many times, the door would shut. SO. FAQ, HERE I COME! :D
I totally screwed up my favourite question, the one on deprecation and disposal. Dang, why must they change the sentence structure? Even Val said that she had problems understanding that part.Plus, I stupidly thought that it was 7/12 when the question clearly stated that Guess bought two machines at $15,000 each on 1st July. Dang.
Although I'm rather proud of myself that I got the prepaid insurance correct. Accrued/incurred insurance sounded funny, so when I re-read the question once more, I realised that it was prepaid. Hurrah.
Oh, and question 2 of section A totally sucked.It was on capital and revenue. I so totally wanted to study that but something made me reach out for the accounting concepts notes. Nothing went in anyway. Rah. I just lost an 'A'. Sorry mom. :'(
hmm. After PoA, Val and I did art from that time till about 6pm. Dang, not going to sleep tonight. Warning: Don't irritate me tomorrow, I'll just snap. Let me get some rest first or I'll go hyper on you. Drawing doll faces now. oh the joy. Once I'm done with page two, the rest would be a breeze. (or so I think it will)
Wishing all the art girls ALL THE BEST! for the drawing and painting paper tomorrow.
Yay. My dad bought me a jacket. BUT, I want a hoodie. H-O-O-D-I-E.
dolls dolls dolls[ 12:22 AM ]
marionettes may be freaky but, thanks to my topic for this art prep, I've learn to like dolls. Not the scary ones eg. chucky, but beautiful dolls that I don't mind owning. Leeke or dollfie dolls. They are wonderful little things and should be loved by all (:
Well, must fly. I have 6 more minutes to transfer all my stuff into a disc. Not only that, I finally got the english translation of the song still doll. It might be useful for my art prep. Now, to find images of eyes and I'm done with the com. Then it's off to PoA. To tell you the truth, I sort of sucked at PoA. Though, after spending more than 5 hours revising it with Val, it turns out to be rather easy.
HAHAH. alrights, stop fooling around. EOYs are ending in 2 days. hip hip hurray! :D
HURRAH. THERE AREN'T ANY PAPERS TODAY. ;D screw art man. its so time consuming. :( I had fun anywas. ;D
Yeah, no papers. The FnN girls should be in the hall now, waiting for the paper to start. I guess my sis is inviglating them. >3> okay okay. Blog surfed for a while and searched for some definitions. Dang, I can't find that page that once mentioned the definition I so desperately need now. Hmm. I need more time for art yo.i don't think I'm going to sleep tomorrow. Rah, not again.well. Must fly. Need to do as much as possible for art in 15mins, then I have to wash up to meet Val at school later. ;D STUDY BUDDIES! Oh, speaking of studying, Val and I went to Chelsea's house on Monday to help her with Chemistry. Thankfully the paper wasn't that hard. So, all those peeps who have been failing Chem finally have a chance of passing it.(: on and off. What's up with me.

* (repeat) ---------------------------------------- Memories are always beautiful In the eyes of everyone In the same way
But, yes We actually know That there is more
Please don't forget Me, that girl and you
* We were not born to live Just putting on a front And hiding a face Like the dead
We can look back on the past Because we passed there We stopped and stepped forward again
Please remember Me, that girl and you
We got hurt Even lost sight of light And gave up more than once But still we are here
Now, let's stand up without fear For the sake of no one else
And I thought for sure that I would fail both Math and Chemistry.
Today was a pretty awesome day. The last two stressful papers are over, and I got to experience a lil holiday kind of thing as I walked round taka. ;D I finally got my box of awesome colour pencils from art friend. Pt that couldn't find the same exact box of colour pencils Ms Low has. Dang.
Oh well, I settled with faber caster instead. (: Thanks Kim for the money. You've been a great help. ;D
Anyhoo, back to the papers. It easy. I actually completed or almost completed both section A and B in half an hour. Suprisingly. And I thought that the paper would be tough, seeing that Mrs Chu actually sort of told us what was coming out. Well, not exactly She just told us to focus on a few topics. :)
Yeah Yeah. 3/5 got awesome teachers for the sciences this year! HAHAH.
Math was just frustrating. The paper was a lil challenging. I sort of forgot how to do the question on circles. No, I forgot how to do it, I didn't forget to do it. You didn't read it wrongly. hee~ There was totally not enough time, for goodness sake. I lost at least 10 marks in total. Crappy shit. D:
hmmm. I just went to flickr tp search for some sitting poses and found this mother of seven having an awesome bod. Dang, I want her legs. D: Going to do what ever it takes to get those awesome legs. >,<
okay Lyna, back to work yo. ART ART AND AWAAAAAAAAY~!
it's hard to stay away from the things you love, or once loved. Especially people.
HIDING BEHIND THE TREE~ Three cheers and three cheers and three cheers to all of us! hip hip hurray! hip hip hurray! HIP HIP HURRAY!
Finally, it's over! Honestly speaking Biology wasn't as tough as I thought it would be. ^^' Either the paper's easy, or I did my revision. HAHAH, I going with I did my revision. XD
Oh, a big thanks to MR TANG! My oh-so-awesome Biology teacher :D He was like, "this question has a 75% chance of coming out!" So, like duh, IT CAME OUT. :D So, 5 marks for moi.
SS was just crappy, but the SEQ was alright I guess. It was on my favourite chapter, Healthcare :D The thiing is my SS teacher said to study chapters 3, 4 and 6. She spent so much time going through heakthcare a deterence and she totally didn't touch on sri lanka. Even if she did it was only a tad bit.
So, the other SEQ was on chapter 4. Dang it. D: I mean, i roughly get what is going on. The gist of it. But to answer a SEQ with what I know, I would fail for sure.
Anyhoo, I'm about to revise Geography :) Before I do, just let me try to fold a gold rose out of the ferrero rocher wrapper. It's tough. Well, My first one was pretty nice. The second one was a bigger bloom. Though I sort of messed up the wave thing. HAHAH.
Guess what? I owe my mom 1000 ferrero rocher roses. When She passes away, I'll be the one to throw them all in. 2 down, 998 more to go. Oh the joy. T.T
anyhoo, going to blog surf for just a lil more and start on Geography. I heard that it's going to be tough. D:
[edit]
Maybe it's just me, maybe it's my addiction to the computer catching up or is it just me becoming a Wonder Girls fan?
hahah. looks like I just caught on to the tell me craze. T.T nobody nobody but you~ ;D
[edit 9.50pm]
I'm just being lazy by not creating a new post. heeee~ Anyhoo, I realised that Biology and SS drained me, both metally and physically. So much to the point that I don't feel like revising but I have to force myself to do so even though geog is one of my favourite subjects. >,<
Oh, I owe my mother 998 ferrero rocher roses and Philip 996 ferrero rochers. He actually offered to help me eat ALL of them. The only problem is that I can only pass it to him when we see into each other during tuition, which is like, seldom. Hmm, or almost never. Looks like I'll have to find some container to store those ferrero rochers.
Hmm. I just asked Ms Low where she bought her colour pencils. I decided to do my final piece in colour pencils, with some water colours and a tad bit of high quality paint from Germany. :D It would take me more than three whole hours to blend all the colours perfectly.
GUESS WHAT? The EOY examination stress finally got on to me. I'm stressed to the point that I actually cried. I taught my friend how to blend the colours using colour pencils today. She told me that if she couldn't do it, she wold cry. Well, she did yesterday.
Not only that, I have such wonderful churchies who care so much about, well...everyone. :) I just forwarded a message regarding how stressed out I was, and I got a few replies. I felt happy, for once. I hadn't felt that kind of happiness for quite some time now. For the first time, my mom actually said to me, "it's alright." She said that the scholarship didn't matter much to her as long as I get a good grade for English. Now, I have to push myself to get 5 'A's no matter what. I don't care about how much sleep I have now. I'm just going to study like nobody's business.
Although my humanities may not be as good as my dear sister's one, I bet that I could get a average score if I really try my best.
oh, here's my EOYs timetable:
3rd October Social Studies and Biology
6th October Geography
7th October Mathematics and Chemistry
9th October Principles of Accounts
10th October ART.
Fortunately, I don't take FnN(Food and Nutrition) so I get the 8th of October off. ART is killing me, Literally. It's tearing my life apart. Okay, wait. Not to that extent, but you get what I mean, don't you?
hahah. I decided to do art for the whole of today, and SS for the whole of tomorrow. ;D oh! Going to get a Charelle top and eye shimmers! :D So, now I need $13.30 ^^' The Charelle top is $10.90 while the eye shimmers add up to $2.40. Yeaps....
OKay okay. This is the first time that I freaked out so much for MATH. I mean, It is one of my As. I'm aiming to get 5 As this time. D: Dang. Here are the list of subjects that I NEED to get an 'A' for:
COMBINED SCIENCE (Biology and Chemistry) COMBINED HUMANITIES (Social Studies and Geography) ART Principles of Accounts MATHEMATICS
Yes. You noticed that the languages are not in there at all. Reason being is that I totally suck at them. Well, Just pray that I'll be able to get a B3 for both of them. If I ever do, and you just happen to bump into me, you'll see me smiling like an idiot. ;D
Well, ART paper is in 10 days and I have yet to complete one page of my prep work. Dang it.
Going to do art until 4pm, then focus on SS till 12 midnight. Wake up at 3.30am to do art till 5.30 or 6am. SCHOOL SCHOOL SCHOOL. Revise SS till 11pm and switch to Biology till 12 midnight. Wake up at 3.30am to to revise SS, followed by Biology at 4am till 6am. SHOWER BREAKFAST EXAM.
Yes. Then I can relax a lil. OR NOT. Will be studying my butt off for the Geography paper on Monday. I'll see if I can *ahem ahem* skipchurchonsunday.
I'm very disappointed with myself today. I was suppose to wake up at 3.30am to do ART followed by Biology at 5.30am till 7.30am. But no. I just HAD to sleep in my parents room. RAH. I mean, the alarm did rang, I did woke up, but dang I had to switch it off as it was disturbing my mother. DANG IT.
LYNA is unhappy with herself. Anyhoo, must fly. Got to search for some pictures for ART.
